Yes Wawkrk,
I was up by the cemetery that day too! Also there the rainy Sunday after Chernobyl to see an Air Holland 727 (Could be wy I've since lost my hair!).
We regularly had Caravelles with 'chutes, JAT 707's not to mention Iberia A300's, Spanair Convair 990's, and DC8's from Aviaco and Worldways. Wardair regularly sent 747-200's and at least once a DC10.
So what's the big fuss about a 777?
